Google Research has demonstrated its AI agents' capability by porting a significant portion of the Zircon microkernel and the libgav1 video decoder to Rust, adding approximately 800,000 and 170,000 lines of code respectively. These rewrites were verified through comprehensive test suites, ensuring functional parity with the original code. In parallel, a security audit of applications built on the Lovable platform uncovered sensitive data, including passports and chat messages, exposed in numerous projects. AI
